Flour Tag

This is a fun outdoor kid game where you get tagged with flour-filled nylon sacks. Things you'll need are dark shirts and flour nylon stockings (also choose a person to be the referee and determine a jail area). Each player must have a dark T-shirt on (black or navy blue works as well). Give each player a nylon that is filled with flour. Tie the nylon at the end to make it into a ball shape. The group plays tag as normal but players are knocked out by throwing the flour torpedoes at each other. You'll be able to know exactly who has been hit by the flour mark on their shirts. The referee must keep their eye on the players and call out those who are hit to the jail area. Keep a damp rag handy to clean up the shirts between rounds. A variation of this game is "capture the flag" with the two teams posessing a flag at each end of the playing field. Have the teams try to get their opponents flag without being tagged.
